Passage 1
Question 21 to 25 are based on the following passage：
In November 1965，New York was blacked out by an electricity failure．The authorities promised that it would not happen again．Pessimists(悲观主义者)were certain that it would occur again within five years at the latest．In July 1997，there was a repeat performance which produced varying degrees of chaos throughout the city of eight million people．In 1965，the failure occurred in the cool autumn and at a time of comparative prosperity．In 1997，the disaster was much more serious be- cause it came when unemployment was
high and the city was suffering from one of its worst heat waves．In 1965，there was little crime or looting(抢劫)during the darkness，and fewer than a hundred people were arrested．In 1997，hundreds of stores were broken into and looted．Looters smashed shop windows and helped themselves to jewelry，clothes or television sets．Nearly 4000 people were arrested but far more disappeared into the darkness of the night．The number of policemen available was quite inadequate and they wisely refrained from using their guns against mobs(暴徒)which far outnumbered them and included armed men．Hospitals had to treat hundreds of people cut by glass from shop windows．Banks and most businesses remained dosed the next day．The blackout started at 9：33 P．m．，when lightning hit and knocked o ut vital cables．Many stores were thus caught by surprise．
The vast majority of New Yorkers，however，were not involved in looting．They helped strangers，distributed candles and batteries，and tried to survive in a nightmare world without traffic lights，refrigerators，elevators，water and electrical power．For twenty-four hours，New York realized how helpless it was without electricity．21．Look at the first paragraph．Who were right：the authorities or the pessimists? ( )
A．The authorities． B．The pessimists． C．Both． D．Neither．22．In what way was the blackout of 1997 not really a repeat performance? ( )
A．There was much more disorder． B．This time the electricity supply failed．
C．It was quite unexpected． D．It did not occur within five years from 1965．
23．What caused the blackout in July 1997? ( )
A．Excessive heat probably made people switch on too many electrical appliances．
B．Because of unemployment，some machines were not in proper working order．
C．During a storm，lightning damaged supply cables．
D．The passage does not mention the cause．
24．Why did many looters manage to escape? ( )
A．The police could not see them in the dark．
B．Many of the looters were armed with guns．
C．There were not enough policemen to catch them all．
D．They were hidden inside big build ings．
25．How long did the 1997 New York elect ricity failure last? ( ) A．A whole week． B．Twenty-four hours．
C．Three days． D．A whole night．
Passage 2
Question 26 to 30 are based on the following passage：
They are among the 250，000 people under the age of 25 who are out of work in the Nether- lands，a group that accounts for 40 percent of the nation’s unemployed．A storm of anger boils up at the government-sponsored youth center，even among those who are continuing their studies．
“We study for jobs that don’t exist．”Nicollete Steggerda，23，said．After three decades of prosperity，unemployment among 10 member nations of the European Community has exceeded 11 percent，affecting a total of 12．3 million people，and the number is Climbing．The bitter disappointment long expressed by British youths is spreading across the continent．The title of a rock song “No Future” can now be seen written on the brick walls of closed factories in Belgium and France．
Recent surveys have found that the increasing argument in t he last few years over the deployment(部署)in Europe of North Atlantic Treaty Organization missiles and the possibility of nuclear war have clouded European youth’s confidence in the future．
One form of protest tends to put the responsibility for a count ry’s economic troubles on the large numbers of“guest workers” from Third World nations，people welcomed in western Europe in the years of prosperity．
Young Europeans，brought up in an extended period of economic success and general stability，seem to resemble Americans more than they do their own parents．Material enjoyment has given them a sense of expectation，even the right，to a standard of living that they see around them．
“And so we pass the days at the discos，or meet people at the cafe，and sit and stare，”said Isabella Gault．“There is usually not much conversation．You look for happiness．Sometimes you even find it．” 26．Unemployment in the Netherlands has affected ____ ． ( ) A．one million people B．roughly 0．6 million people

Passage 3
Question 31 to 35 are based on the following passage：
Children are a relatively modern invention．Until a few hundred years ago they did not exist In medieval and R enaissance painting you see pint-sized men and women，wearing grown．up clothes and grown-up expressions，performing grown-up tasks．Children did not exist because the family as we know it had not evolved．Children today not only exist；they have taken over，in no place more than ill America，and at no time more than now．It is always Kids’Country here．Our civilization is child-centered，child-obsessed (困扰)．A kid’s body is our physical ideal，In Kids’Country we do not permit middle age．Thirty is promoted over 50，but 30 knows that soon his time to be overtaken will come．
We are the first society in which parents expect to learn from their children．Such a topsy-turvy (颠倒的)situation has come about at least in part because．unlike the rest of the world．Ours is an immigrant society，and for immigrants the only hope is in the kids．In the Old Country，Sat is，Europe，hope was in the father，and how much wealth he could accumulate and pass along to his children．In the growth pattern of America and its ever-expanding frontier．the young man was ever advised to GO WEST；the father was ever inheriting from his son．Kids’ Country may be the inevitable result．
Kids’ Country is not all bad．America is the greatest country in the world to grow up in because it is Kids’ Country．W e not only wear kids’clothes and eat kids’ food：we dream kids’ dreams and make them come true．It was，after all，a boys’ game to go to the moon．If in the old days children did not exist，it seems equally true today that adults，as a class，have begun to disappear，condemning all of us to remain boys and girls forever jogging and doing push-ups(俯卧撑)against eternity．
31．The author uses the example of the Renaissance painting to show

33．Going to the moon is an example of ____ ． ( )
A．Ameri ca’s dreams and creativity

C．w hy America hasn’t grown up
D．why America is considered the gre atest country in the world 34．According to the passage，which of the following is true? ( ) A．It is very difficult for the middle-aged to live in America．B．America is Kids’Country because the majority of the American population are children．
C．Kids’ Country was taking shape in America when immigrants poured into the country．
D．America is more of Kids’Country than any other countries in the world．
35．By saying “condemning all of US to remain boys and girls forever，jogging and doing push-ups against eternity”，the author means that ____ ． ( )

(10 points) Facebook has been 1 with fire and has got its fingers burned, again. On November 29th America’s Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced that it had reached a 2 settlement with the giant social network over 3 that it had misled people about its use of their personal data. The details of the settlement make clear that Facebook, which 4 over 800m users, betrayed its users’ trust. It is also notable because it appears to be part of a broader 5 by the FTC to craft a new privacy framework to deal with the rapid 6 of social networks in America. The regulator’s findin gs come at a 7 moment for Facebook, which is said to be preparing for an initial public offering next year that could value it at around $100 billion. To 8 the way for its listing, the firm first needs to resolve its privacy 9 with regulators in America and Europe. 10 its willingness to negotiate the settlement 11 this week. Announcing the agreement, the FTC said it had found a number of cases where Facebook had made claims that were “unfair and deceptive, and 12 federal law”. For instance, it 13 personally identifiable information to advertisers, and it failed to keep a promise to make photos and videos on deleted accounts 14 . The settlement does not 15 an admission by Facebook that it has broken the law, but it deeply 16 the company nonetheless. In a blog post published the same day, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s boss, tried to17 the impact of the deal. First he claimed that “a small number of high-profile mistakes” were 18 the social network’s “good history” on privac y. The FTC is not relying on Facebook to police itself. Among other things, the company will now have to seek consumers’ approval before it changes the way it shares their data. And it has agreed to an independent privacy audit every two years for the next 20 years. There is a clear pattern here. In separate cases over the past couple of years the FTC has insisted that Twitter and Google accept regular 19 audits, too, after each firm was accused of violating its customers’ privacy. The intent seems to be to create a regulatory regime that is tighter than the status quo, 20 one that still gives social networks plenty of room to innovate. 1.

A black hole in the universe is not a solid object, like a planet, but it is shaped like a sphere. Astronomers think that at the center of a black hole there is a single point in space with infinite density. This single point is called a singularity. If the singularity theory is correct, it means that when a massive star collapses, all the material in it disappears into the singularity. The center of a black hole would not really be a hole at all, but an infinitely dense point. Anything that crosses the black hole is pulled in by its great gravity. Although black holes do exist, they are difficult to observe. These are the reasons. ● No light or anything else comes out of black holes. As a result, they are invisible to a telescope. ● In astronomical terms, black holes are truly. For example, a black hole formed by the collapse of a giant star would have an event horizon only 18 miles across. ● The nearest black holes would be dozens of light years away from Earth. One light year is about 6 trillion miles. Even the most powerful telescopes could not pick out an object so small at such a great distance. In 1994 the Hubble Space Telescope provided evidence that black holes exist. There are still answers to be found, however, so black holes remain one of the mysteries of the universe. 1.
